"Sir, the dog tartar has suddenly retreated.
I lived up to your expectations and succeeded in retrieving General Lee's body. ”
At this time, in the west of the city, a blood-stained quartz, knelt down on one knee in front of Li Zixiao, showed a mouthful of big white teeth, and said happily.
Behind Quartz, four White Dragon sergeants carried a makeshift stretcher, on which was the body of Li Ziwu, who had died in battle.
"Quartz, fortunately, get up."
Li Zixiao walked up to Quartz and personally helped him up.
"Humph!"
As a result, as soon as Quartz stood up, a muffled snort came out of his mouth.
At this time, Li Zixiao saw that there was a gunshot wound on Quartz's lower back, and at this time, blood was gurgling out, and the armor on his body was dripping.
"Stone, it's okay."
Li Zixiao asked eagerly, he didn't want to see something happen to Quartz.
"Hehe, sir, I'm fine, I'm rough and thick-skinned, and I can't die." Quartz said very honestly.
But Li Zixiao knew that he was completely heartless and stupid, how could he be okay with such a serious injury, and if he didn't get it right, he would die.
"Someone, go call the medical guards, come and bandage the wounds of the chief stone guard, quickly."
Li Zixiao shouted to a guard next to him.
Then, Li Zixiao looked at the quartz in front of him again, and said solemnly: "This lord orders that from today onwards, all officers and soldiers in the army during the war are not allowed to kneel and salute.
It is not enough to bow down on one knee, but it is enough to bow your hand, and this kneeling will cause the wound to burst, but it is not worth it. ”
"The lord is wise."
The few remaining White Dragon Army generals who rushed over next to them shouted one after another.
Immediately, Li Zixiao walked to the back and looked at Li Ziwu's corpse lying on the stretcher, Li Zixiao was sad and angry.
Li Zixiao touched the broken armor on Li Ziwu's body, the blood on it had already coagulated, and said in a low voice: "Ziwu, you wait, I will kill Duoduo and let him bury him for you." ”
"Sir, General Du came to report in the north of the city, they found the banners of General Li Tianba and General Zhao Zilong in the north and northeast of the city, respectively, and they are killing from the north and northeast."
At this time, a white dragon sergeant hurriedly ran from Beicheng, Du Tengfei, to report the situation to Li Zixiao.
"Sure enough, it was Li Tianba and Zilong who arrived. Dolgon, from now on, the offensive and defensive forces have changed positions. ”
The situation reported by the soldiers was basically similar to what Li Zixiao had guessed.
From the withdrawal of the Qing troops on all fronts just now, Li Zixiao knew that it must be the reinforcements of Li Tianba and Zhao Zilong outside the city.
"Somebody bring the map."
Li Zixiao waved his hand and shouted at a guard next to him.
Immediately, the guard took out a map and spread it out, and Li Zixiao looked at the map and looked at the terrain around Shouzhang.
"Tianba and Zilong led the army at this time, coming from the north and northeast respectively.
As a result, the route of Dolgon's retreat to the north was basically stuck.
And Shouzhang to the south is the Daqing River, which can't be crossed. After more than 20 miles to the east, there are also canals blocking the way, which is not the best retreat route.
Only to the west, the road is flat, and it is most suitable for marching.
Therefore, Benjue expected that Dorgon would definitely retreat westward with his army.
An order was sent to Li Tianba, asking him to lead his army around Shouzhang Castle and rush westward, first occupying the road leading west to the Daimyo's Mansion and blocking the westward retreat of the Tartar cavalry.
Let Zhao Zilong lead the army to press towards the east of Shoucheng from the north and eat the foot soldiers of the Tartars in the east of the city.
The Tartar infantry moved slowly, and if they couldn't escape, let Zhao Zilong solve the Qing infantry as soon as possible, and then pursue the Tartar cavalry to the west, preparing to gather and annihilate the Tartar cavalry in the west with Li Tianba's men and horses.
Tell Li Tianba and Zhao Zilong that they don't want any prisoners in this battle, and they don't want any soldiers under the Tartar Han Army.
They will pay the price of blood for their deeds to pay for the lives of our soldiers and hundreds of people who died in the city.
But remember, the two Tartar princes who Ben Jure wants to live cannot be killed by Ben Jue. ”
"Yes."
After Li Zixiao's order was issued, the two White Dragon Army cavalrymen immediately rode out of the city and gave the order to Li Tianba in the north and Zhao Zilong in the northeast.
"Send an order to Peng Hao, Du Tengfei and Sun Xianxian, and ask them to immediately lead the remnants of their men and horses to assemble here at Benjue.
All the wounded soldiers were sent for treatment, the casualties were counted, and the battlefield was cleaned up, and you have completed your mission in this battle, and you don't need to go into battle for the rest of the battle. ”
"Yes, sir."
After Li Zixiao's series of orders were issued, the soldiers of the White Dragon Army in the city also dragged their tired bodies and took action one after another.
At this moment, although they don't have to participate in the battle to block the Tartars on the outskirts of the city, it is not yet time for them to rest, and there are still many things waiting for them to do in the city.
Moreover, at this time, they can't relax, saying that the Tartar will kill a horse pistol, although the probability is extremely low, but they still have to be cautious.
The large camp of the Qing soldiers outside the city was located in the east of the city, and at this moment most of the cavalry with white flags and white flags had returned to the camp.
There are more soldiers of the Han army with white flags, who are still returning from the city one after another, all listless and exhausted.
"Lord Wang, all the soldiers of our white flag, and Prince Yu's men and horses with white flags, have all been assembled and can set off at any time.
Prince Yu asked the humble post to come over for instructions, and the tens of thousands of Ming court people brought by the camp, as well as dozens of carts of money and grain, how to deal with it? ”
Guye came to Dolgon and said respectfully.
"All the grain is burned, not left to Li Zixiao, those Ming court people in the camp, arrange for Zhang Kang's soldiers under the white flag of the Han army to kill, remember not to kill them all.
If the soldiers of the Han army under Zhang Kang with the white flag refuse to do it, we will move the gold, silver and jewels we looted to them.
Tell them that this is the king's reward for their battle, but they must kill the people before they can take it. ”
At this time, before leaving, Dolgon did not forget to set up a poison plan, not only to trap the soldiers of the Han army under Zhang Kang with the white flag, but also to prepare to trap the white dragon army.
Dolgon feared that once he led his army to withdraw, Zhang Kang and his soldiers under the white flag of the Han army might not be willing to fight the White Dragon Army again.
If they take the initiative to surrender to the White Dragon Army, they will not be able to play a role in breaking off the rear for them.
Therefore, at this time, Dolgon wanted to let the hands of these Han soldiers with white flags and clear soldiers be stained with the blood of those innocent Ming court people.
Dolgon believed that as long as Zhang Kang ordered the killing of the Ming court, he would never have a way back.
With Dorgon's understanding of Li Zixiao, even if Zhang Kangken led the army to surrender Li Zixiao on his own initiative, Li Zixiao would never accept it.
This is the plan set by Dolgon for Zhang Kang's 'salary from the bottom of the kettle', and when the time comes, he will not be afraid that Zhang Kang will fight with the White Dragon Army to the death.
It didn't take long for Zhang Kang, the commander of the Han army, to be coerced by Duoduo to gather more than 5,000 of his soldiers and come to the tents where the people of the Ming court were imprisoned.
"Someone, carry it up."
As soon as Duoduo beckoned, a row of Tartar soldiers came over with a mouthful of large boxes and placed them in front of the soldiers of the Han army.
"Open!"
When the big box was opened, it revealed white silver, of course, more copper coins, and the box in front of Zhang Kang contained gold.
For a while, the eyes of those soldiers of the Han army with white flags widened, and many of them showed greed in their eyes.
They worked hard for the Qing army, and what they wanted was glory and wealth!
Now so much gold and silver are placed in front of them, and they can only get their hands on it, but no one dares to do it, and they can only look at it.
"Soldiers of the Han army with a white flag, this is the reward of this king and Prince Rui for your battle.
You fought valiantly, you have worked hard, and you deserve these rewards.
However, whether you can get these rewards or not depends on your generals and whether you are loyal and brave to me. ”
Duoduo shouted loudly to the soldiers of the Han army with white flags.
"Long live the Qing Dynasty, a thousand years old prince!"
As soon as Duoduo's words fell, the soldiers of the Han army with white flags shouted one after another, and the originally low morale was rapidly raised.
"Good."
Duoduo sneered, then looked at Zhang Kang next to him, and said in a cold voice: "Zhang Kang, you give an order!" Whether or not these soldiers under your command can get these gold and silver is up to you. ”
At this moment, Zhang Kang's face was extremely ugly.
As the commander of the white flag of the Han army, he naturally knows more than those ordinary foot soldiers, and he can see far-reaching.
In his heart at this moment, he had actually guessed the specific intention of Dolgon's actions.
Of course Zhang Kang knew what order Duoduo wanted him to give, but he really didn't want to give this order, and he didn't dare to give this order!
"Lord, no!"
Zhang Kang's face was bitter, he turned his head to look at Duoduo, and pleaded.
"Zhang Kang!"
Duoduo roared angrily, his eyes were like poisonous snakes, staring at Zhang Kang, and said word by word: "You don't have to do it now, or you die now."
Either carry out the king's orders, and then you will fight for your own life.
And this king promises that no matter what you do in the future, even if you surrender to the Ming court, this king will never blame, let alone implicate your heirs outside the gate. ”
When Duoduo said this, a Tartar soldier behind Zhang Kang had already put a dagger against his lower back.
At this moment, Zhang Kang had no choice, he didn't want to die, so he simply turned his heart to the five thousand soldiers and shouted: "All the soldiers listen, only if you prove that you are loyal to me and the Qing Dynasty, you can receive the reward."
Now there is an opportunity before you, rush over, kill five people each, and return, and each of you will receive a reward of one hundred taels of silver. ”
"What? One hundred taels, really fake? ”
As soon as Zhang Kang's words were finished, the soldiers of the 5,000 Han Army with white flags whispered one by one.
These ordinary soldiers are not Zhang Kang, and no one recognizes the tricks of the Tartars, after all, they have also killed many Ming court people before.
What they value more is whether they will really receive a reward after killing someone.
"The silver of the white flowers is placed in front of you, and the prince himself speaks, and the capital is also there, how can it be fake."
Zhang Kang was out of the way and continued to shout.
"His grandmother's, one hundred taels, I've been earning it for several years to catch up with Lao Tzu, isn't it just killing a few people, Lao Tzu went first."
"Even if it's a hundred taels, count me in one."
Soon, among the soldiers of the 5,000 Han Army with a white flag, there were some ruthless and ruthless veterans who couldn't resist the temptation and rushed out.
With people taking the lead, naturally there were more people to follow, and for a while, more than 5,000 Han soldiers were in the white flag, and a third of them were directly missing, and the miserable cries of the people sounded in front.
"Haha, the five are finished, I'll come to receive the reward."
Soon, among the first group of soldiers to rush out, some people killed five people, carried five heads, and came to receive the reward.
As a result, the Tartar really gave him a hundred taels of silver, which made more soldiers who did not move behind him rush forward.
"Haha, there are really a hundred taels of silver, now go up and kill five more, can you come over and receive the reward."
A fierce veteran, carrying a hundred taels of silver in his pocket, asked.
A Tartar Niu Lu Jingzhang next to him glanced at him and said coldly: "No, it's five per person." ”
"Well, that's a pity." The veteran said with regret.
After all, Dolgon has an order, and he can't kill all these people, leaving some of them behind, which is naturally prepared to be left for the White Dragon Army.
When the time comes, those people who survived will be the best witnesses to the crimes committed by Zhang Kang, the soldiers of the Han Army, and will never give Zhang Kang a chance to surrender to the White Dragon Army.
By this time, there were still nearly two or three hundred soldiers of the Han army with white flags who had not moved, and they really couldn't get this hand, and they still retained a conscience as Han people.
Even with the temptation of a hundred taels, they still did not rush out, but showed anger in their eyes and looked at the surrounding Tartars.
"You people don't do it yet, are you disloyal to me and let go of the arrows!"
At this time, Duoduo scolded these immobile Han army soldiers with white flags in a cold voice, and then waved his hand.
Suddenly, the Tartar archers who surrounded them immediately shot a rain of arrows, hitting dozens of soldiers.
"You ...... How can this be done? ”
There were a few low-level officers of the Han army with white flags, and they couldn't help but shout.
"Now, this king will give you a chance, either to prove your loyalty and receive the reward, or to be killed as a rebel, you can choose."
Dorgon shouted to the nearly two hundred soldiers who had not yet moved.
In the end, between their own lives and the lives of others, these soldiers of the Han Army who had a glimmer of conscience at the end had no choice but to compromise.
It is normal for them to have their own lives now, and there are not many 'saints' who can be noble enough to sacrifice themselves and not kill others.
Even, in their hearts, these soldiers were comforting themselves at this time, even if they didn't kill, those people would be killed by others.
When the time comes, it will be worthless to take your life in vain!
After comforting them in this way, they also thought about it and joined the slaughter.
Poof!
A middle-aged woman holding a child was cut down by a white flag soldier of the Han army, and then the soldier walked up, cut off the head of the middle-aged woman, and hung it around her waist.
